The Manitoba reports that ten car
loads OF the tea that was brought across
from Yokohama to Vancouver by
steamer, as mentioned few days ago,
are on their way to st. Paul over the
Canadian Pacific and the Manitoba

has left Yokohama for Vancouver, and
will soon arrive at its destination.
The Omaha road will sell Fourth of
July excursion tickets to all stations on
the line of its road at rate of one and
ore-third fare for the round trip, except
from points in Nebraska to Sioux City
or beyond, or from points north Of
Sioux City, the latter included, to points
i'll Nebraska, in which case thirty-tive
cents is to be added to the excursion
rate to Covington or Sioux City, as the
ease may be, to the excursion rate from
either of these points of destination.
The Northern Pacific road has made a
car load rate on mica from Moscow,
Idaho, to Milwaukee and Chicago, of 81

The Omaha announces the completion
of the extension of the Sioux Falls line
from Salem to Mitchell, Oak, which
will be open for passenger traffic Sun
day, June 26. The trains now running
between WOrthingtOn and Sioux Falls,
connecting with day trains between St.
Paul, Minneapolis and Sioux City, will
continue to run as at present. In addi-
ton to the above service new train
will be added. This train will carry
through Pullman sleeperS between ST.
Paul, Minneapolis and Mitchell. This
new line reduces the distance between
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Mitchell over
twenty miles.
Another railroad is soon to be built to the
North Wisconsin pinery. Its course will be
from the Chippewa valley to Ashland, prob
ably having for its southern terminus Chip
pewa Falls, and making as near as possible
an air line 10 its northern destination. The
road will pass through the center of the pine
region tributary to the Chippewa river. 1t is
proposed to keep close to the Chippewa and
to SO locate the new line that it will open up
as much timber as can be reached, it being
in the view of the projectors that there may
be profitable business for the road i'll haul
ing logs from the upper country to the mills
at Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire.
The action of the Minnesota d Northwest
ern IN putting the excursion rates via Mil
waukee and the lakes in operation via Chi
cago which amounts to Il cut of So, caused
some talk. and it is not at all improbable that
if the Minnesota d. Northwestern stops this
business that the other roads will stop the
Milwaukee rate, which will have the effect
of restoring the rate via Chicago. Such
proposition has been made to the Minnesota
d Northwestern.
The Omaha is arranging to put on
through sleeper between Council Bluffs and
Spirit Lake, To-, via Worthington.
